Abstract
Reliability and maintainability testing is an important factor to produce reliable and maintainable equipment. This chapter presents various important aspects of reliability and maintainability testing. Some of the topics covered in chapter are the meanings of the mining equipment maintainability and design-induced maintainability problems of mining equipment, advantages of the improved mining equipment maintainability design, mining equipment maintainability design characteristics, maintainability measures for mining equipment, and common maintainability design errors and useful maintainability design guideline for mining equipment.
